A Fulfilling Retirement with Less Stress and More Peace of Mind


I work with Yacolt retirees to bring all the moving parts of their financial life together in one coordinated plan. This includes:

  • Designing a dependable retirement income strategy that balances withdrawals across IRAs, Roth accounts, and taxable portfolios.

  • Reducing unnecessary taxes through thoughtful tactics such as Roth conversions and tax-efficient account placement.

  • Helping you determine the best timing for Social Security benefits based on your overall situation.

  • Reviewing and updating your estate plan so your legacy is carried out smoothly, with fewer taxes, delays, or complications for loved ones.

  • Structuring charitable giving in ways that reflect your priorities while creating potential tax savings.

  • Collaborating with your CPA, attorney, and other trusted professionals so your plan works seamlessly.

  • Managing investment risk appropriately to support both current income and long-term objectives.

  • Proactively preparing for key milestones like Required Minimum Distributions, Medicare decisions, and shifting tax brackets.
